matters pertaining to their pipe line work, which
Is now progressing without delay. Some of

to examine lands that will probably be secured
for right of way, there is yet some doubt as
to the line being laid along the Lake Erie g
Western route. 1t is understood that petition
will be presented to the County Commissioners
to-day, asking for the right to bring the line
through the county. Al Broad Ripple quite
large force of men are at work trenching and

The social lion of the hour is young Charles
Dickens. He is being feted by everybody, espe-
cially by those who knew his father. 1t makes
little difference in his welcome that he is not
great reader and cannot be understood across
the auditorium. He seems unaffected, man
~ young fellow who is making an honest
deavor. We like him for this, but we love him
for being his fathers I confess to looking
at him with the feeling one has toward person
who comes from ones childhood home to meet
him among strangers and who has lately
seen the loved ones who have been so long but a
memory, and felt the inclination to say: ''And
do you, indeed. come from little Nelll and do
you know personally my dear friend Davida and
can you tell me whether any one has yet sue
news heard from the village was that he had
not been found" Alas, that young Dickens has
not that same tender genius of his father He
might then explain this mystery and bring us
news also from fondly cherished friends. But
he has not and can never open the door which
closed with his fathers death.

THE GAS TRUSTS BIG BOOM
The List of Subscriptions to Stock Still
Continues to Grow Rapidly.
; The Germans Pledge Themselves to Give
$50, 1904 Number ofsCapitalists and Firms
Make Subscriptions for Large Sums.

The promoters of the Consumers Gas Trust
Company-and they BE found working By
committees in every ward IL the city-are still
actively pushing the subscriptions with the hope
of completing them by the end of the week.
This may not be realized. but the time when the
required amount will be obtained is placed by
no one later than the middle of the coming
week. Yesterday the movement acquired new
impetus in the subscriptions of several large
real-estate holders. who for several days have
been consulting as to the amounts they would
subscribe. They were called the syndicate, and
its members represented on the stock list by
Nicholas McCsrty and Simon Yandes each tax
ing shares 70 the amount of s., 600. while Geo.
Yandes. J. 81. Baldwin and W. s. Hubbard each
subscribed $1,000 C. W. Fairbanks, John S.
Spann and William Mansur also took forty
shares.
Last evening the manufacturers held spir-
tied meeting at the Board Of Trade rooms. in
the interest of the enterprise. There were as
many in attendance as on Saturday evening,
and the responses to calls for subscriptions were
more prompt Judge Lamb told them what
ever is to be done must be done quickly, and
that every effort should be made to complete the
subscriptions this week. The lawyers and fin
Rnciers regarded the plan as perfectly safe.
W. ?. Fishback, in his remarks. said thai If
the Trust failed the gas and fuel supply of the
city would be under the control of man.
Lindley Vinton remarked that the business
men should assume the responsibility OF the
terprise, as from them alone assurances of sue
cess could come.
E. B. Martindale said he favored the Trust as
being of the best things that could bs de-
vsed for the city's prosperity. Its success would
have a wonderful effect in other places Already
a benefit had been derived in arousIpg the peo-
pie an active interest in the ci.y's welfare In
order to secure the success all desired he would
be one of thirty to see that the $500, 900 was
subscribed.
John P. Frenzel said that his canvassing and
that of Mr.. Fahnley among the Germans had
secured $35 $50 In addition to this the fol-
lowing amounts were reported:

Any old Elton boy would tell YOU
that Won might as well never have
been born as not TO know about Mon
TEN. Why, Montem was as old as
Queen Elizabeth's time, and Queen
Victoria was very sorry to have TO con-
sent to have it broken up. The senior
colleger was captain of Montem, and he
sometimes made fl, 900 out OF it,
On the morning of Montem day, the
captain gave great breakfast in the
Hall to tho fifth and sixth forms.
Then the boys marched twice around
the school yard, the ensign waved the
great flag, the corporals drew their
swords, and the procession started
through the Playing Fields to Salt
Hill, in long line, accompanied by
two or three regimental bands. The
officers wore red-tail coats, white
trousers, cooked hats with feathers,
and regimental boots; and the lower
boys wore blue coats with brass but
tons. white waistcoats and trousers,
silk stockings and pumps, and carried
slender white poles. But before this,
long before sunrise, the salt-bearers
and their twelve assistants had gone /,
some on foot and some in gigs, to their
places on all tho great roads leading to
Elton, to beg salt" from everybody
they met. Salt meant money; and
everybody had to give them salt
George the Third and Queen Charlotte
always gave fifty guineas apiece. The
money went TO the captain of Montem,
to help him pay his expenses at the
university to which he was to go after
leaving Elton. The salt-bearers carried
satin money bags and painted slaves,
and as receipts for the salt that they
secured they gave little printed tickets
with the date of the year and Latin
motto.
Everybody went to Montem. King
George always used to go, and Queen
Victoria went There was always n
"Montem poet" who dressed in patch
work and wore n crown; and he drove
about the crowd in a donkey-cart re-
citing his ode and fourishing copies Of
il for sale.
When the procession came to the
top OF Salt Hill, the ensign waved his
flag a second time, and that ended the
celebration; only the boys and the
visitors all went to the inns Mt Windsor
for n big dinner.--'1 Glimpse OF

The Eight.Hour Working Day.

Every indication points us to the be-
lief that such n further reduction in
hours of labor, even below the eight
hour limit, is not only possible. but ex-
ceedingly probable, if il is allowed to
come naturally, not artitcially; that the
progress OF art and science is rapidly
tending, where il is unchecked, to make
less labor necessary for mans subsist-
ence. Nothing could be so certain to
check or destroy this tendency as an
organized effort by labor TO gain n
forced, artificial, and unfair advantage
over it's employer. When hours of la
Dor are far above the limit possible at
the time, statutory interference can do
comparatively little harm; the nearer
they approach the natural limit, the
more does statutory interference tend
to drive them up again. Labor organi-
cations can do very little by striving
for legal eight-hour day: they can do
very much Ivy striving to sweep away
passion and prejudice, by upholding
peace, order, and security, the condi-
tions of efficient production, and by in
culcating an intelligent consideration of
facts by their members. Only in this
way can they gain or approach an eight
hour working day. The Century.
